Hi,
You can definitely opt for BCA as it has got nothing to do with maths subject but only restricted to computer basics and related programming languages that you will need to study and master your skills upon like Java, Web development, UI development, Dot NET C Sharp, C+, etc. Maths shall only be a qualifying subject either in any one of your semesters just to pass it down, nothing to do with the job and career ahead with BCA.
All the best. -

6 years agoIt's not an big ideas if you're weak in mathematics many students pursuing BCA as their degree who are weak in mathematics. It will be good choice of you choose BCA as your Bachelor degree. In BCA you'll learn some programming languages that will help you in your bui or in corporate world of you opt for a job. Thanks, Regards, Singahi Saifi. -
Improve your Maths. You need not worry about your Maths. Repeated practice can improve that. BCA Maths is quite easy. So don't worry about it. If you really have interest to do BCA, then go with it. But, if you want to pursue MCA, Maths plays an important role. Competitive Exams like NIMCET AIMCET and so on gives importance to Maths. So, whenever possible practice Maths. Or else, join any institute which provides BCA+MCA integrated courses. But, if you want to pursue MCA from reputed institute like NIT, then Maths is important. Note that, NITs don't provide integrated courses. And additionally, MCA other than from any reputed institute...more

Yes, I would like to tell you that you need good mathematical skills because you have to give maths-1, 2 and 3 exams during your BCA and to clear them you at least should know calculus and should have basic understanding of class 12th mathematics.
For programming also, you need to develop logic to code, therefore I would say that maths plays a major role but if you have interest in coding and want to join in IT field then you must take BCA and practice mathematics. -
45 marks is not bad one, but if you can try to study well and improve your Maths, then you should opt for BCA, otherwise better you choose any other course.

If you are weak in Maths, then BCA will become difficult for you because you will study Maths in at least 3 semesters. I have friends who secured 33 in Maths in +2, but are doing okay in Maths. It not that difficult if you have your basics cleared. Well again if you don't want to study Maths, then don't take admission in BCA.

No, I suggest you not to go for BCA if you are weak in mathematics as it would be relatively hard for you to be at ease at the course because it needs that much of mathematical knowledge.

Yes, of course, you can do BCA. A programmer should know maths for algorithms so go through the concepts.
All the best for your bright future.
